Q'HEY / SOUND

Unlike the techno I usually produce for clubs, this song reaches a climax quickly to better suit the in-game action. Even so, if you compare it with the other songs, it's pretty laid back.

Video Production Info

VJ GYO / MOVIE

"On The Tube". As you'd expect, it means "On TV". The thing that's surprised me most on TV was seeing the TV screen under a magnifying glass. It must have been early on in grade school; I remember being surprised at watching how the light switches on and off under a magnifying glass. Since PCs have become popular, we've all become familiar with the concept of light being made of three primary colors - red, green, and blue - but still it's kind of strange.

The structure of the movie follows the sound fairly closely. I added BNC display cables that transmit each component of light that gets displayed on the TV tube to mix in the flavor of shock and wonder i mentioned before. There are also lots of "Q" marks throughout the video, out of respect for Q'HEY, who's been a leading figure in the hard techno scene both here in Japan, especially in Tokyo, and overseas.
